Their calls increase when mine decreased. I often shut down when things become overwhelming. Jealousy blocks blessings and I was in desperate need of one.
Looking at Instagram would only make me compare my life or become jealous of others.
I would post to Instagram (bc engagement) but I would not scroll through or watch everyone’s stories. Mainly, for assurance that I belonged to God and he had me. I had to read my Bible for affirmation and confirmation. I had to be meticulous in how I maneuvered with this boss. Most days I prayed for discernment and guidance. I felt like there was nothing else for me to do but pray. “When you pass through the waters, I will be with you and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you. A new job, starting and finishing esthetics school, some sponsored content, and an unforgettable girl’s trip. From that point to now I’ve had many other valleys including a stolen car, bills, and other health issues. Her response was well you have this client at 9 am. After informing my boss of the hospital visit I was asked if I had a doctors note that prohibited me from working. I wanted to lie on my couch for a few days and gather myself but… I still had to work. I returned home only to wake up the next morning to a busted back car window. When my left arm started to ache as well I rushed to the hospital. I thought I was making it until I woke up with chest pain. I would go to church on Sunday and ball my eyes out. I would have reported her to HR but we were a small non-profit. Most of the time she sent another message before I could even respond.

The calls were followed by a series of text messages that included a list of things to do. On several occasions, I woke up to several phone calls all before 7 am. Although I had a caseload of 10 clients my boss still felt the need to send me errands to run. My boss was worse than Meryl Streep in The Devil Wears Prada. Also, it was with my dream population in DC of all places.
I was so excited to take a job that was in my field of social work. Being held underwater without being let up for air.
